I was rudely awoken at 3am by someone banging and shaking the van before proceeding to scream f*ck off then jumping back in their car and blasting the horn. As a solo female traveller I wouldn’t recommend it left me quite shaken up!

Our car got damaged with traffic cones on a friday night, by a boy group at 2am - called the police 3 times. They skreamed things Like „wake up motherf****s“.

I was staying there 27.11. , I arrived first and then 2 more vans came. There was one old Maori guy hanging out around on his bike, was talking to me for a while. If there is no other campers I would leave. Both of Toilets were surpassingly closed during the night from 6pm.

It’s a free space, and it helped a lot, as there are not many places on the road southwards. (It was already late) I felt a bit bad, as the marked field was too small for the length of my campervan. But no one bothered. It’s a calm place with a very good bakery not even 5min of it. Yes there are passing cars but not lot of traffic. I didn’t use the public toilets (my van is self contained). There’s a playground and a japanese garden nearby as well.

We felt insecure. When we were driving to the place we saw three people in a big fight in the middle of the road. one girl took a big stick of her car. It was in the road near to the carpark. It was late and we were tired so we stayed because there isn't many option nearby. It is a carpark near to the main road and the train rail. Noisy. There isn't to much space but also not to many people. The toilet across the street was really dirty we didn't use it. We survived! Din't have any problem

Great place by the main road, but the road was very quiet. One of two toilets accross the street in the little park was open during the night. So previous comment is not correct.

Top!! Er waren 4 van ons voor 6 plaatsen in totaal. In tegenstelling tot de opmerkingen van de presidenten, was het vrijheidskampgebied zeer gemakkelijk aangegeven, met markeringen op de grond. De stad moet dit onlangs hebben gedaan. Ik hoefde de toiletten niet te gebruiken, dus ik kan niet zeggen voor de openingstijden, maar er zijn 3 in de buurt. Ik sliep uiterst goed, helemaal niet gestoord door het lawaai. Alleen al in mijn campervan, voelde ik me veilig. ik beveel het aan!

Nothing special but quiet, and better than the other options on the map. A bit of noise. Toilet in the nearby park were closed at night. It's good to go to the caves.

Niet een geweldige plek, een man in zijn auto volledig verspild, een meisje hardlopen in de parkeerplaats om te ontsnappen aan de politie lawaai van 6am Toiletten helemaal niet schoon en gesloten 's nachts

We parkeerden op basis van de laatste 2 opmerkingen, omdat we zelf geen definitieve kaarten of markeringen konden vinden. Deze plek is niets fantasiefs, maar het doet het werk. We gebruikten de badkamers van Main Street 5 minuten lopen, ze waren prima. Een goede plek om Waitomo vroeg te bereiken.
